Writing a list to a file with Python

Question

Is this the cleanest way to write a list to a file, since writelines() doesn't insert newline characters?

file.writelines(["%s\n" % item for item in list])

It seems like there would be a standard way...

Answer 1

For writing a list to a file with Python you can use a loop:-

with open('your_file.txt', 'w') as f: 

for item in my_list: 

f.write("%s\n" % item)
